A neologism for “spring, source” created by Boris Shapiro in PPQ (PPQ) from the early 2000s, equivalent to N. celw. I prefer ᴺQ. celu as an adaptation of ᴱQ. qelu.

tuilë noun "spring, spring-time", also used = "dayspring, early morn" (VT39:7, TUY), in the calendar of Imladris a precisely defined period of 54 days, but also used without any exact definition. Cf. tuilérë, q.v. (Appendix D) - In early "Qenya", the word tuilë is glossed "Spring", but it is said that it literally refers to a "budding", also used collectively for "buds, new shoots, fresh green" (LT1:269). Cf. tuima in Tolkien's later Quenya.
